How is that different from what we have today? If libdivecomputer gets some new event today, then subsurface will not be able to use it, until some code is added to handle it properly.
Sure it can. We may not know what it is, but we can still save the event number and data, and at least it's there. And this is not theoretical. We've done this.
If we use some totally disjoint "these are our events", we can't do that.
This is the *only* reason we use that horrid type/flags/value model in the first place. But it's a big reason. And you just seemed to totally dismiss it.
